Re: [LINUX_Newbies] Seek linux verison of Encyclopedia software

 

Well, technically Wikipedia is based on linux.... but that's probably not what you're after.  

Short answer is, I've never heard of one (same applies to your other thread about a herb rememdy program.

To be honest, those things are becoming few and far between, even on windows, IMO because everything is available on a website somewhere.

You could run Encarta or most windows programs on Linux via WINE (Windows Emulator) so that's always an option...

I know that Microsoft had Bookshelf and Encarata and there is also Britannia - but is there anything Linux-based?
